With its extensive array of trim and body materials, trim design, and CV per body size the GU/AU series can virtually fit in any application. The rugged 1 piece body minimizes potential leak paths of the valve. The overall design of the Neles™ balanced globe valve allows the trim and seat maintenance to be easily performed in-line via the top of the valve. The valve conforms to ANSI/FCI 70-2 class IV / V with metal seat and VI with soft seat. They can either be used for FTC (flow to close) or FTO (flow to open) applications.
The AU series was designed for high velocity and high-pressure drop applications. The AU series angle body design provides the valve with an internal flow path to handle the noise caused by flashing fluids. For additional noise reduction, the AU/GU series can be coupled with a tendril trim. This multi-hole trim is ideal for cavitation abatement and fluid noise control. It is usually used on high-pressure drop applications where the AU series standard trim and body design needs a little boost.
